communicate :: collaborate :: commemorate

Here is my educated guess of what is going to happen in December. First you will see an update for the PRIV, then a few days later for the DTEK60. DTEK50 will receive the November update that was never released, followed by the December update a bit later.

BlackBerry is not communicating about what happened to the DTEK50 November patch. The most likely cause is that they tried to bundle an operating system fix with a security fix and subsequently failed a test.

The bigger problem here is that BlackBerry went dark. When you fail to communicate, everybody assumes the worst.

Just for the record: My new PRIV (model STV100-4 from the BB shop, thanks for the recommendation) received its December security update in the evening, labeled '5. December 2016'. Now we'll have to see how good your guess was ...
